The College of the Rockies will be building a new $10 million trades training facility that will begin construction in the spring and open in the fall semester of 2018. The facility, funded with $4.2 million from the federal government, $3.8 million from the province, $1 million from COTR and $1 million from the Columbia Basin Trust, will support 43 new full time spaces for electrical, millwright and heavy-duty equipment programs, for a total of 325 spots. Construction is expected to break ground in April.
